Get a Cup of Tea and Let's Hang Out Together!
Today, take a moment to connect to the Earth.
You know, that big, blue ball that floats through space?
The one we live on, but don't always give a second thought to?
Yeah, that Earth.
Connect with it today.
Earth day is coming and we need to realize that we are more alike with Her than we are d...
Hello and welcome to a new Techniques Tuesday, where we'll be exploring Trikonasana, or Triangle Pose. Today is a second stage, where we go a little deeper.
As always, listen to your body, rest and modify as needed, and stop if you feel ANY pain. While this is a pose often used in yoga classes, it ...

They say patience is a virtue.
I don't know who "they" are, but I certainly have days where I am really lacking in that virtue!
Here's the thing, though; we really need to learn it, especially when it comes to ourselves and our goals.
When you set a goal...
Let's take a moment, just a moment, and breathe.
Sit for a moment, finding your comfortable seat, so that you are sturdy and grounded.
Relax your shoulders away from your ears.
Place a hand over your heart space, another over your abdomen.
Feel your breath as you breathe naturally.
Just notice ...
Hello and welcome to a new Techniques Tuesday, where we'll be exploring Trikonasana, or Triangle Pose. Today is a beginner modified version in a standing pose, but in future variations, we will explore also a seated chair version, so stay tuned over the following weeks for information on that as wel...

We've all been there.Â
We know what we *have* to do.
Maybe we even *want*Â to do it.
But we get caught up in the "how's", "why's", "what-if's", "when's".
We get so caught up in the nitty-gritty, and trying to make it all "perfect", or waiting for the "p...
We continue our exploration of a hips and shoulders opening flow this week, with a level 3 variation. This is the "most advanced" variation of the gentle flow we started 2 weeks ago. For more modifications, be sure to check out last Tuesday's post for Part 2, or the previous Tuesday's post to that f...
Happy Monday!
It's a new week - how will you make the most of it?
I don't mean by "being productive" in our society's sense of the word, where you judge your worth by your hustle or productivity or sales.
I mean, how will you make the most of your week with YOU?
Move your body at least 10 minute...
So I've had this recipe floating around my house for a few years, and every time someone comes to my house I make it.
Why?
Because Every. Single. Person. LOVES IT.
Full Stop.
It's easy, affordable, non-caffeinated, no-sugar-added and incredibly delicious. Great for staying hydrated any time of y...

Really, the caption in the image says it all.
We rush through life, producing, hustling, rush, hurry, grind, cram.
Then we get to the end of the day, the week, or finally to our vacation and what happens?
We crash and burn, baby.
We realize *...
Let's keep talking about those hips and shoulders. This is the next variation of the gentle flow we started last week. For more modifications, be sure to check out last Tuesday's post for Part 1.
Let's be honest - we all spend a lot of time on devices, and sitting in postures that aren't exactly co...

I'm about to get real, folks.
I used to compare myself to others.
Like, a lot.
I looked at other fitness and yoga teachers online, and saw how fit they are, how they have better abs, a smaller butt, better hair, less acne, more money, yadda, yadda, yadda....
